The Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, is located in the Kalahari regions of both Botswana and South Africa and came into being as the official merger of the Gemsbok National Park in Botswana and the Kalahari Gemsbok National Park in South Africa.

The park offers a majestic and infinite desert landscape with migrating herds of wildebeest, gemsbok, springbok and eland, cunning predators like lion, cheetah and leopard and unending red dunes with unique flora and a diversity of epic proportions is what draws the visitor to this ancient land of the Kalahari Desert.

Harnas Wildlife Foundation (HWF) is an organization located in Namibia, approximately 300 km east of the capital Windhoek. HWF is one of the few wildlife orphanages and medical centres in the world to take in abused, injured, and captured wild animals from Namibia, Botswana, and southern African nations, saving hundreds of animals per year.

The very beginning was in 1978 when Nick and Marieta van der Merwe saved an abused vervet monkey from its captors for five Rand and a some bread. This ape was the beginning of a long line of animals that found refuge at their farm, Harnas. To cover the ever-increasing costs of food, new enclosures and medical treatment, all of which the family had financed until then through profits from their cattle, Harnas opened its doors to visitors and contributors.
This Wildlife 'refuge' become a reality, and over the years expanded to become a major role player in conservation and wildlife campaigns.
